About this trial
Local data has shown conflicting results regarding the outcomes of volar locking plates versus external fixators in distal intra-articular radius fractures. Therefore, the current study was planned with the objective of comparing the outcome of a volar locking plate versus an external fixator in distal intra-articular radius fractures.
